“Exactly.” Xu Ke nodded his head in agreement. Huang Song completely gave up.
Talents abounded. It was a pity he was of lowly status. There was no way to retain gifted scholars, let alone the son of Liu She.
Even though he could not attract the talent, they were still able to joke as friends.
Seeing that the other party so open-minded, he could not be stubborn about customs. They had a big heart.
Considering it from that perspective, the regrets in Huang Song’s heart were somewhat soothed, and he continued to watch the commotion.
Jiang Pengji noticed the bear-like appearance of Fang Pangzi’s left eye, which looked like a bruise. Under the influence of obsessive-compulsive disorder, she wanted to box him in the right eye to make them symmetrical. “Pei! I, the young master, will never give birth to such a useless son like you. You were surely the bastard son of a woman who was unfaithful.”
Such words of mockery made the whole room of guests laugh.
Speaking of sarcasm, Jiang Pengji’s words really ridiculed one’s mother. It was such an embarrassment to one’s family.
“You are you not afraid of being ripped to pieces a thousand times over!”
Fang Pangzi regained his focus mentally, and his face turned red with embarrassment. He boldly threatened, “If you have the nerve, get your father here. This master does not mind beating up you and your father together.”
Jiang Pengji wasn’t joking when she said that. If Fang Pangzi really dared to shout, she really would beat him up.
Fang Pangzi’s whole face turned red with anger. Jiang Pengji added oil to fire by adding an extra sentence. “But if this is the case, you have to call this young master grandfather.”
The words just left her mouth. Many did not realize what she said, or they did not understand.
Only Feng Jin, Feng Jue, and Xu Ke, who all had astute minds and were agile, understood the underlying meaning. They nearly choked on their saliva.
Huang Song was also intelligent, but he was eccentric. He understood shortly, as well.
Jiang Pengji said it very clearly. She would beat Fang Pangzi up until the other person called for his father. If Fang Pangzi’s father came, he would surely be beaten to a pulp as well. If he shouted for his father, Fang Pangzi would have to call Jiang Pengji grandfather.
Yi… Those words were very embarrassing.
“Get lost. This young master never leaves his target alive. If it was not for your father, your corpse would be laid out in the cold.” Jiang Pengji mockingly laughed and threatened him. “If you want to report this, go ahead. This young master will want to hear if you are right or if I, the young master, am right.”
Even though the argument was ignited by Fang Pangzi and Huang Song fighting over who was the brightest mind in the teahouse, troubled waters descended. Fang Pangzi actually wanted to strip Jiang Pengji’s clothes to humiliate her. It was not a simple conflict. If the issue was blown up, it would not be easy to resolve.
“You––you just wait!” Fang Pangzi was carelessly thrown onto the floor by Jiang Pengji. His butt landed on the floor in the main hall, and he felt like his tailbone was going to break.
He pathetically used one hand to cover his face, and the other to relieve his headache. Before escaping in his sorry state, he did not forget to say, “You are welcome to come again.”
Jiang Pengji waved, and her face did not flinch in fear.
Fang Pangzi restrained himself until his face became maroon. He left, pathetically escorted by a host of servants, and was limping.
After Fang Pangzi left without a trace, only then did Jiang Pengji wipe away the mocking smile from her face and return to her cold expression.
“Remember to compensate them since we messed up their place.” The words were directed to Feng Jin.
If not for Feng Jin’s younger brother, who insulted the others, she would not have faced such an unexpected calamity.
Feng Jin smiled politely. Huang Song, who was standing to the side, quickly said, “I am to blame for this incident. It is only right that I pay for the damages. I will get my servant to come by. It should not be Second Brother Feng who has to pay.”
Even though Huang Song descended from eunuchs, other than his reputation, which was not good, he lived a comfortable life.
Amongst all the people there, he had the biggest private stash in his pockets.

“Who is this?” Jiang Pengji was multitasking and already knew the background of Huang Song, but she pretended to be ignorant.
Huang Song introduced himself, embarrassed. “I am Huang Song. If Liu Langjun doesn’t mind, please call me Bogao.”
“Sure.” Jiang Pengji nodded.
Huang Song’s pupils lit up.
In contrast to Feng Jin’s gentle and detached disposition, the impression Jiang Pengji gave was not so unapproachable. In other words, there was a chance they could have been friends.
At that, Wuma Jun, who was sidelined by the people, opened his mouth. “That young Langjun just now was the beloved son of Marquis Chengen. Lanting embarrassed him. Marquis Chengen will not let it go lightly.”
Marquis Chengen was also known as Army General Fang. He was in control of 10,000 troops in Shangjing.
“What is there to fear? If he has the guts to reason it out, then we will debate about the matter. Who doesn’t have a father?” Jiang Pengji said mockingly. The last phrase made Wuma Jun swallow back his words.
Fang Pangzi brought 20 to 30 fighters. Those who couldn’t beat her were instead killed. If Army General Fang was not embarrassed, he could have made a bigger scene out of it.
If they shamelessly came to her for revenge, Jiang Pengji would not be afraid. She would let their fathers compete. Whose house did not have a father?
She encouraged Liu She to go to Chongzhou back then. The court immediately followed up by appointing a new county chief to oversee Hu county.
It was a pity. Hu county became so stable under the governance of Liu She; the people were not pleased with the new chief. Three years had passed. Hu county was, in reality, still under Liu She’s control. The Emperor was secretly displeased with the present situation, but could not do anything about it.
Hu county was an asset that could not be owned. Who could be comfortable with that?
The Emperor intended to use the marriage between Liu Huan and Wuma Jun to bring the relationship between Liu She and the royal family closer.
He wanted to use their children’s marriage to slowly erode the control Liu She had over Hu county.
Based on that, Army General Fang was a dog the Emperor reared. Would he dare to bite Jiang Pengji?
He was not only unable to take revenge, but after the incident, he was forced to come and offer his apologies.
Feng Jin controlled his laughter. His gentlemanly and cold appearance could hardly be maintained.
“We haven’t seen each other in a few years. You are still so sharp with your words. I wonder what person on earth can withstand your temper.”
“The universe is so big, but one will eventually find their match. Huai Yu does not have to worry.” Jiang Pengji stretched her hand to receive her sandalwood fan, and then fanned herself. She thought of something suddenly and said, “I received your letter a few months ago. You mentioned that Jingxian was already four months pregnant. Is she due to deliver in two months?”
With Liu She’s as the matchmaker, Feng Jin eventually married Wei Jingxian.
Based on the Feng family status, Wei Jingxian was of a somewhat lower birth status. Considering she wasn’t the eldest son’s wife, the criteria didn’t have to be so strict.
Feng Ren asked Feng Jin for his opinion regarding the person Liu She recommended. Seeing that their second son did not reject it, they decided on proceeding with the marriage.
In that sense, Feng Jin was indeed a good husband––at least Jiang Pengji did not manage to find traces of another woman on him.
That showed that Feng Jin’s harem was relatively non-existent. Other than his legal wife, there wasn’t any improper girl.
“En! My stomach has grown bigger over the last few months. Whatever I ate last month, I vomited it out. My entire being became thin… Jin saw and was worried.”
Feng Jin was a first-time father. He looked calm usually, but deep inside he was anxious.
Based on current medical standards, women giving birth was a walk through the gates of hell. One mishap and both lives could be lost.
“I’ve heard the old people say that the first child is difficult to give birth to. To prevent accidents, it is better to invite a person trained in gynaecology and an experienced midwife to stand by at one’s house.” The Feng family was rich and well-known; they had the means to invite personnel skilled in delivering babies.
Feng Jin nodded in approval. Adding more insurance would put his heart at rest.
